THE GREAT CATTLE TRAIL.
9ifty Thousand Animals Halted by Their
Owners and Ordered Driven Back to Texas.

DENvEH, Col, July 2l The cattlemen who
now have their great herds going north the
great cattle trail have decided upon a move
which will face about sc, 900 head now on the
trail aud drive them back into Texas. The rea-
son for SO doing is because there is absolutely
no market for the cattle. The meeting at which
this decision was arrived at held Tues
day night in the rooms of the Cattle growers
Association. Among the cattle men present
were Messrs. Fl. c. Tardy. of Del Rio, Tex.
end agents reprer sntieg tha Simpson Cattle
Company, of Texas. OF the cattle now on the
trail, 20. 600 head have already entered Wyo-
ming, and 90, GOO are reported in the vicinity of
the Arkansas river Yesterday the cattlemeu
went to Hugo Col, to meet the superintendent
and captains of the drive, to inform them of the
action taken and to give them orders for the
turn drive. This action practically removes
from existence forever the long-used cattle trail
for the transportation of cattle. Such decision
was only made after it became appa rent that no
Iemedy could be depended upon. The cause
of the trouble lies principally in the exaggerated
nature OF the Information affecting the stock
market. 1t was thought that the hard winter
had made cattle scarce in Wyoming, Montana,
and Dakota, and it was learned that Wyoming
wanted no cattle whatsoever until after the
herds were started. For fourteen years the cat
nemen have used the trail to northern markets
without a season intermssion, and many mill
ions OF dollars worth of cattle have passed over
1t. The trail begins 200 miles south of Fort
Worth and takes straight line to Wyoming,
entering Colorado near West Las Anmas. The
trail was established in 1863. and the cowboys
had to fight their way through hostile bands of
Indians for the first several years. Last year
400. 900 cattle were driven the trail this
year but 10000 have been started.
and two-thirds of these are now
turned back. Theodore Ives, of Fort
Worth, declares the act disastrous,
and that the failure to get the cattle to market
will have the effect of putting 81 900, 900 worth
of property back into Texas. which is already
overstocked, thus driving prices down to ruin
Gus figures. 1t may cause number of failures.
Captain Cutler thought there would be more
shipments of cattle by trail Texas will have to
consume her own cattle. In other words, the
cowmen will have to establish packing houses,
10 their own killing and make their own ship
ments. The settling up of the Western country
is what played the mischief with raising cattle
IN large herds. The trail has gradually been
growing narrower. until last year it but
three miles wide and now this has been thrown

WASHINGTON, July 2L-Captain Bunce, OF
the Atlanta, has forwarded to the Secretary of
the Navy detailed report of the officers ap-
pointed by him to examine into the damage done
to the ship by the firing in G ardners bay The
report shows that windows and china basins
were broken by the violence of the recoil and
large chest was also thrown overheard. Capt.
Bunce, commenting on the report, says the result
of the firing has been to completely disable both
the eight-inch B. L. gun carriages, and to throw
doubt upon the efficiency of the six-inch B. L.
gun carriages, and the three-pound rapid fire gun
mounts. The arrangement of the battery has

stoned general surprise. There was much RS
luctance TO say anything about the matter mani
tested to day at the office of the company.
Finally an official of the company volunteered
the following statement
.sWe have been unable to get any satisfactory
advices from Venezuela about our concessions.
Mr.. Tyrer knowing this, although not connected
with the company came forward and voiun-
teered TO go down there at his own expense. He
said he could learn the exact situation for US.
and it might be that he could obtain the
cess,ono We thought had and still were after.
If he succeeded we could pay him for his trouble.
His proposition WAS formally accepted after dis
cussion and we will now await his report"

that given above. He says that at a meeting of
the board of directors the unsatisfactory condi-

HARSH TALK ABOUT CLEVELAND.
Democratic Editor Thinks that the Presi-

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LAKE MAxINKUCKEE. July 2I-The speech of
Scott Ray, of the Shelbyville Democrat, was the
special feature of the annual convention OF
Democratic editors of Indiana. which began
here to-day. The title of his address was Tell
the Truth" and after dwelling at length
upon the advisability of Democratic editors ad-
herring strictly to this maxim, he made severe
application of it to the administration of Presi-
dent Cleveland, which he Denounced generally
and specifically as a disappointment and
failure He savagely attacked Cevelauds civil
service policy, and complained at length about
the retention of Republicans in Office while their
places are SO anxously desired by Democrats
He thinks the Presidents Cabinet is largely
responsible for his blunders. and while he is
specially severe Bayard, Garland and Villas
he takes in all by saying. mo President since

those whose judgment he invokes TO guide mis-
administration, and for whose mistakes be is
held responsible. TO say that they are mostly
weak, unknown. impractical men and unsatis-
factory TO the Democracy of the country, is to

He concludes with statement of what he be-
leves to be truths worthy the consideration OF
the national Democratic convention next year,
saying among other things, that with Mr..
Cleveland, Indiana would be lost; that it is
doubtful whether he can carry Virginia. West
Virginia and North Carolina; that he has alien

to harmonze or bring that vote back TO his sup
